Dude, I am not saying Tinubu is innocent but he was never indicted.

He returned some money and was on his way.

What do you think would happen if you travel to any sane country without declaring an above limit currency amount and can't provide evidence of where the money came from at their border?

A suspicion is not a crime

After I and anonimi posted the definitions of indictment you're still arguing he wasn't indicted.

What is your own definition of indictment then?

If you got your money legally would you donate that money to your host country or fight in court?

Like yours:

Law. a formal accusation initiating a criminal case, presented by a grand jury and usually required for felonies and other serious crimes.

Did this case go before a grand jury?

Was he charged with a felony?

Obviously the FBI got "fooled", and that's what matters!

An FBI that took down Al Capone in his heyday can be fooled by Jagaban!

I respect the dude even more if what you're saying is true.

You don't have to be charged with felony to meet the definition of indictment.

3.
any charge, accusation, serious criticism, or cause for blame.


It was also in my earlier post.

Well, we are talking law here, aren't we??

The legal definition is what is important.

Next, one day the ambassador will declare that at no time did Buhari tell Muslims to ensure that Sharia criminal laws are implemented all over Nigeria. Power can buy favour.

Yes and he was indicted legally and forfeited his money rather than face the grand jury.

Would you forfeit nearly half a million dollars if you think you have no case to answer?

He was not charged with a felony, he did not appear before a grand jury. How is that an indictment.

This is from the daily beast article:

There’s no evidence that Tinubu was ever indicted for any crime. He eventually settled with the district court, turning over $460,000 of the seized $1.4 million, with the remainder released back to him. The Beast tried repeatedly to contact Marsha McClellan, the U.S. attorney who prosecuted the case, but was unsuccessful.

He gave $460,000 out of the goodness of his heart or because he knew the prosecutors were charging him to the grand jury?
Why was $460,000 seized from him?

Me the igbos will find another way of attacking yorubas now.

Why? Is the Tinubu clearance not coming from the US ambassador who went into INEC inner vote counting chambers while presidential election votes were still being counted,
and announced that even his American state never had the high tech card reader which Nigeria uses for election? Imagine a high tech which Nigeria has but the US could not have.

The ambassador sensed that APC was wining hence he came out to authenticate whatever the final results and pre -empt any argument that the election was not fair.

But the last presidential election was the most unfair in Nigria's modern elections, an election influenced by six years of violence.
APC political machine is working king for it so far, but how far can it go? Nigerians are not going to be majorly blind for long .

Though I don't like this man, I have always known that the Tinubu drug story doesn't add up .The US government does impose fine on any drug charge talk tell of this major one. No parole, no probation, just a fine on a so called MAJOR heroine ring?.that is a FEDERAL charge carrying at least 15 - 25 years in jail.

Its good enough to accuse GEJ without proof, but its not good enough to accuse Tinubu who forfeited $460,000 to the U.S government? No?

Like I said, Tinubu was not indicted for any crime. The fact that there was even a settlement shows that there was not enough evidence to indict him.
